Am I the only one to find this setup needlessly error prone and complicated? Would amanda automatically create appropriate exclude entries from its DLE information, all this would be greatly simplified. For example, with this set of DLE entries: /share/ /share/financial /share/financial/company-a /share/financial/company-b /share/reports amanda should automatically create following exclude entries: DLE exclude entry -------------------------------------------- /share ./financial ./reports /share/financial ./company-a ./company-b With this, the whole described procedure would be reduced just to add a directory to the disklist. No more risk to get the "catch all" entry wrong.
